Let's see what we have for you today ;)

Anja used Poppin' Over to create little card to decorate your party table. So clever to have those little guys pop up - right? What a FABULOUS use for these stamps that can sit on --- about anything :)

She also used our stacked Pierced banners Die to emboss some extra texture and to add a little banner (you could easily write names on those, of course!)

I would like to introduce Make a Wish to you today. That's a set that is perfect for all stypes of cards, from fun to elegant - and it also covers a wide range of occasions.

I went a little over-board (it that the right expression?) and made 5 cards - just wanted to try out so many things (And I am still not done, yet - haha! :)

1) Super fun and super bright - I embossed the mixed-matched sentiment onto colored cardstock :), just stamped the main part ("wishes") onto white cardstock and fuzzy cut it.

2) simple and classy: With the stars and the right sentiment you have the perfect Christmas card. I did some foiling on this sentiment - a match made in heaven!

3) Elegant handwriting but a male card? YES! Keeping it simple and embellishing with wood can create a male card:

4) colorful and fun again, but less bold: Combining the focal point with some background stamping created endless possibilities (depending on the sentiment, that you need)

 5) the girly way: I added a lot of color and embossing to this one. the sentiment is embossed in white, the stars on top of the colors with Silver pearl. It creates a subtile detail for a simple card :)

We have lots of German customers who love our German sentiment sets, so how could we not create a similar look for them? "Glück ist" is just as versatile:

The sentiment on this card says "Luck/Happiness (that's the exact same word in German) is laughing with you until we gasp for air".

Take a closer look at the entire release here:

So, what's your favorite set? I have a hard time picking a favorite this month!

Thanks for stopping by! Check back for more inspiration tomorrow :)
